AWESOME, this is a great job i am loving .

Install on windows 7 and working great I notice you have done some update on your github . How do i get the latest msi file so i can help you test . i think the version i am using it from January/

Hey you willing to continue writing the code i will to test and offer my help (sorry cant write code ) I can down mono and you can tell me how to build it myself , so i can keep update , its up to you

Cool, it will be great to have someone using it and providing feedback!

I'll update the .msi package soon (need to do some testing first). What kind of machine are you using it with? Does it use an arduino (GRBL) based controller? I might get PathCAM talking to arduino's pretty soon, so you can run your robot directly from PathCAM.

If there's any other features you'd like to see, let me know and I'll add them in.

Yes , I am running grbl and ardunio uno on a gshield v5 I also have a TB6560 3 axis board ( using linuxCNC and mach3)

Cnc mill : Shapeoko Software : Universal Gcode Sender , Inkscape, makercam

I think your software is so much needed, to turn stl files in gcode for CNC . this will open the door for a lot of cnc hobbyist and more .

Any update on the MSI file

xenovacivus commented 10 years ago

I've got a bit of code to clean up & fix, but I think I'll find time this weekend.

xenovacivus commented 10 years ago

Ok, new MSI package is up! Please do try it out and let me know if you have any issues.

AWESOME

Just shared with my google Plus community Group seeking more testers link here https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/113449862431368152053

OK Maybe rename some button (suggestion)

Add the option to always use either imperial or metric

I notice you can open the files based on imperial or metric but when setting the tab hieght , last pass height etc in in inches. would be nice to have a drop down or check box to choose Inches or mm

More suggestions to come
